Chap five "Restart"
The snow has made its way to cover the whole London and the places surroundings the city.
A fancy carriage with a crimson features could be seen in front of the Phantomhive's mansion and a blonde haired girl walked out of the carriage followed by a black haired man and a brown haired woman ; the black haired man knock the door a few times gently and then step back a little to stand behind the blonde.
Hikaru hurried himself to open the door, but because he is kind a spaced out today so he is sort of slow to get the door, Sebastian that wait too long then knock the door once again but a bit louder this time causing Ciel, Lisya, Karasu and the other 4 servants in the mansion get to the door at the same time when Hikaru arrives as well…he then open the door.
Slowly, the door open and as it open… Hikaru's eyes are both widened and his body id freezing like seeing a ghost or something like that , Hikaru's feelings are all messed up… surprised , mad and maybe scared all got mixed up into one … and that's all because the man that right now standing in front of him.
As soon as the door was open, the blonde girl went in and hugs Ciel tightly "CIEL!" Elizabeth shouted while smiling when her arms are already wrapped around Ciel's neck , she hugs the boy just like she doesn't meet him for years , but that's how she express her love to Ciel and no one can forbid her to hug her own fiancé…. Right?
Ciel is almost unconscious because of Elizabeth's shouted right beside his left ear , but all of a sudden his eyes are both widened and he release himself from Elizabeth and walk closer to the black haired man that is no one and other "Sebastian Michaelis".
When the boy is right in front of Sebastian, he just stare at the man quietly, his heart felt so uneasy for some reason it beats so fast and somehow… he feels … So…. Nostalgic. "Sebastian…" he almost choked with his word but he manage to said the name correctly even it needs some more effort , everyone was surprised and speechless to both of them.
Lisya stop in her sight of seeing things, since the door open not just Hikaru that got his eyes widened but Lisya as well…. She stare with an almost teary eyes… she then just turned around and runs to her room followed by Karasu that seems to be calmer than Lisya.
Arriving at her room , tears made its way down Lisya's cheek that suddenly being red , she is happy that Sebastian is alright but in the bottom part of her heart…. It has felt so wrong, why is it must be like that? She is supposed to be happy, right? But why? Why? , she clutches her skirt the moment she scold her own self.
"You have promised me that you won't cry when you see him…" Karasu immediately told the blonde while closing the door behind her that Lisya left wide open with a small blam, she knows that Lisya can be really childish and sensitive….."And else, he is my brother… why are you the one who cry?" Karasu scolded Lisya once again but with a low tone, doesn't want the other girl to cry louder than before, the blue haired girl actually wants to cry but, she thinks that crying is just...well...unnecessary for a teen like her, she bent down and tries to cheer the blonde and somehow…it works! , both of them then go to living room…where everyone has gathered.
At the room, Sebastian is nowhere to be found and Karasu left Lisya together with the others, Karasu went all over the mansion to find Sebastian ….every room she goes to is empty...and after searching finally she finds Sebastian making tea in the kitchen, the girl slowly walk closer to the man with a wide eyes but suddenly she stops and just stand there behind Sebastian quietly.
"How can you…recover your strength?" Karasu asked with almost choked words... she is really felt surprised and happy at once, she just thought that Sebastian probably is a normal human but; the man turns out to be really…erm…. Demonic or something like that.
Sebastian did not say anything to answer Karasu but keeps on making the tea, he is just does not feel this is the right time to tell the girl the truth about all of it.
"You should probably answer her Sebby~chan..." a high voice was heard behind Karasu and that voice comes out from the blonde haired girl that stands straightly with a wry face that is Lisya
Sebastian turns back and stare at Lisya with a questioning face , Lisya just smile at the man and nod slowly , the man then sigh and then turned to Karasu ; "Well… you can say this is my emergency strength" he said with a wry smile. Karasu blinked a few times, because the answer she gets is quite...er...unusual.
Lisya and Sebastian stares at each other; "Since I'm really worried about you two, I added some more energy for unexpected things that might happen" She explained carefully, she knows that this is quite a confusing things to understand by people... but come on! Karasu is already 777 years… However, age is not the problem the problem is how Karasu will react into this.
"So, why are you crying when you talked to Hikaru...?" The blue haired girl raised her eyebrows, demanding to know what happen.
Lisya was surprised when the other girl asked her like that , she looks down at the floor until the two can't see her face properly anymore "It's true that Sebastian is fine , but Ciel's memory … maybe it won't comes back to him anymore" she answered , her hands become fists and trembling ; she can't take it any longer ….. It just too cruel.
Hearing it, Karasu's eyes widened, she looked at Sebastian that looking down at the floor "So what is Ciel's power anyway…?" She asked once again but with a higher tone.
"You could say…. Just like a prophet… but more powerful … More powerful than god's" Lisya said quietly she is sad but she would never show her sensitive feelings to anyone include Karasu herself.
Karasu speechless about what she has heard a moment ago, seeing the girl still confused Lisya continue with an explanation that might get understand by the other girl "well, at this rate of power, Ciel can feel even go to the future and also change what happen in the past"; Sebastian clenches both of his eyes and bit the bottom part of his lip.
"Don't worry… I won't let Hikaru or anyone to take him…" Lisya muttered out, Sebastian just stare at her quietly
"Yes, My Lady "Sebastian said as he kneeled down based on his left knee.
Karasu smiled to both of them and then leave the room without any single word "I wonder where is Hikaru" she asked to herself.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Hikaru is sitting on his bed alone, in the dark room, Karasu's words are still wandering around his mind for the whole day, and he just can't believe what he has heard last night…. 'Michaelis Family: a family that lost from sight, nothing left but Sebastian and Karasu' Hikaru thought, he does not have any idea about it but he felts that it has a concern with it…. Especially with that girl. "I have to take care of her," He said as he stood up and leave the room at once.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
When the moon is already up in the sky, everyone in the mansion is already in their own deep sleep Well…everyone except for the blue haired girl that still completely awake.
Karasu is staring at the full moon quietly but suddenly her eyes widened, she then hurried to leave the mansion with a full speed and she arrives at a high tower.
"Just come out, I know you're there" Karasu said out of blue
"As expected from you…" Hikaru said as he getting out from his place, he tilted his head a bit and stare at the girl quietly with a smile covered his face.
The blue haired girl has no idea what the demon is aiming for tonight but at any case she must be careful and take some distance that far enough from the demon "What are you doing here , don't you must be in the mansion..?" She asked again as she turned around does not wanting to stare at the demon again.
Hikaru made a disappointed look because the girl acts as if she hates down to hell to Hikaru "Well… I'm bored there, Mind chatting with me?" Hikaru said still stare at the girl for a while, Karasu is suspicious about Hikaru, but since she is bored as well, so she gets no choice but accept Hikaru's offer by nod a few times and then sit in something that she thought to be a comfortable place to sit down and relax even just a bit , the demon do the same .
Both of them just look t each other and then be quiet again , no words , no sound , nothing. They stared at the sky, both Hikaru and Karasu are thinking almost the same as each other's at the same time, they feel kind a weird to be this close to each other….
"So do you have any siblings, other than Sebastian?" Hikaru asked it choked, because that is a quite personal question to start a conversation
"Actually, yes… my twin brother but he was missing days after we were born… what your family like Hikaru?" She asked and answered at the same sentence, she knew that Hikaru probably won't answer it because it's too early to asked that to an enemy, Karasu thought that everyone loves their family… everyone including the demon himself
"I don't have any… Pricepton is just a cover up, I was just a street kid until Lisya found me" he answered , it's kind a hurt to remember the bitter past that he tried to forget but the girl just make him want to say it all , he wants to pour the pain he has been trough for the past years. "But…" Hikaru suddenly added while looking up at the sky.
"But?" Karasu questioned the last word Hikaru said
"I have something that my parents gave me when I was a baby" Hikaru answered, he then take out a little key that made of crystal and there is written "K & K" on the top of the key. Karasu's eyes widened as the key was got out of the other teen's pocket, Hikaru heard that the girl gasped and then he stare at her with a curious eye, he saw the girl stood up and turned in front of Hikaru.
Karasu felt all surprised , she suddenly throw himself to Hikaru without any sign causing the demon to be surprised but because his reflex is nearly perfect he catches and let the girl's hand wrapped around his neck and her face in his chest , now Hikaru is completely clueless.
Quiet sobs comes "I-I…. I have found you… Kyose" Karasu said choked, she pulled away from Hikaru and stare at him closely with a smile that grew wider. "Kyose...? Who is that?" Hikaru asked broke the silence
"You….you are Kyose, my twin brother "She said. " What?" Hikaru fastly reply with an unbelievable tone , he stood up and walk a few meters away from Karasu before turned back and asked "What is your prove to it..? " He asked once again.
Karasu took out a round box made of silver and at the top of it written "S & K & K." "That's…" Hikaru walked closer to Karasu and take the box from her and stare at it for a moment before get the key to the boxes keyhole , the box opened and an unblossomed rose could be seen in it , the rose got lift up and a song is played
"Kiga tsukeba hora yorokobi mo wakeaeru

"Me and Sebastian used to hear it , since he has his own key to open this box " Karasu said looking at the demon
"but , maybe I get this key from him right ?" Hikaru denied what Karasu said earlier , he still staring at the music box .
"because in Sebastian's key , there's written "S" while your's is not"Karasu said
"I remember now , that day… when Lisya found me , she told me that someone will sort of combine with me and could it be it's…. you? " Hikaru told with a soft tone , a smile grew in his face .
Karasu hug Hikaru once more softly murmured to him " she is right , Goodbye Kyose…" as she said Hikaru's real name , he body starting to brightly glowing and whole of her body just change into feathers and it's fell on the floor in front of Hikaru.
It's not just Hikaru but Sebastian and Lisya that suddenly appeared there was surprised and Sebastian launch a punch on Hikaru's face causing Lisya to gasped at it and hurried herself to separate them before anything broke.
"Stop it Sebastian ! "Lisya shout loudly but still clear "NO, he… he kills Karasu and I won't forgive him!" Sebastian , for the first time not obedient to Lisya.
"HE IS KYOSE!" Lisya shout out the truth , Sebastian's fist that already set to punch Hikaru got stop in his trace , his eyes got widened while Hikaru just looking down , don't know what to say.
"He….. is Kyose…? " Sebastian asked
"Yes he is "
Sebastian's feeling is now awkward , the man he hates , the one who erased Ciel's memory and the one who ruined his life by disappearing Karasu is 'his brother" ? this is just out oh his mind , this can't be true at all! . The black haired man just turned and leave Lisya and Hikaru stood there.
X at somewhere in London X
Ciel is walking without any certain destination , he is totally bored in the mansion and he couldn't find Hikaru or even Lisya so he decided to have Tanaka to get him to London for a little walk , he is looking down at the pavement and not paying attention to where he is walking to , he bumped into someone's back
"Ugh,…. Sorry.." Ciel said as he stepped back a little and look at the tall man in front of him , the man turned and it's Sebastian.
"Um.. Aren't you Lizzy's servant ? what are you doing here? " Ciel said
Sebastian surprised of finding Ciel in here all of a sudden " Well I just have a little walk , care to join me Ciel-bocchan..? " Sebastian asked nicely
Ciel thought that it would be okay to be walked with someone that he really curious to , so he nodded in agreement.
They walked through he night…..
